While almost fully comprehensive, there are some notable absentees from this compilation: "Incessant Mace" from 1985's Pyrrhic Victory compilation cassette (with Chris Cornell on drums), "Heretic" and "Tears to Forget" from 1986's Deep Six compilation (with Scott Sundquist on drums - note that "All Your Lies" from this compilation was previously released on 2010's Telephantasm), and a re-recording of "New Damage" featuring Brian May from 1993's Alternative NRG compilation.

Kim Thayil has also mentioned in past interviews that there are more unreleased tracks that still haven't seen the light of day, including tracks like "Dirty Candy", "Ocean Fronts", "Open Up", "Summation", "Beast" and "No Shame". None of these tracks are on Echo of Miles, despite the fact that Thayil has expressed that he wanted to release a b-sides compilation featuring these tracks.
